I recently put my slightly tail heavy Astro Hog into a flat spin for the first time. Full up, right rudder, right aileron, low throttle after a couple of turns of a regular spin, I cross-controlled the ailerons to the left. Instan flat spin. After saying "Oh, wow!" I decided it was time to recover - It didn't! Full throttle, down elevator, left rudder, nothing. Just kept spinning. It plopped down in tall grass with minor damage. Now I want to know just what it takes to recover from a flat spin. More power? A bit of weight on the nose? The flat spin is pretty, but I don't want to repeat this performance[&o]!
